PUPS now offers overnight boarding for clients. We take a limited number of dogs which allows us to devote ample time and attention to our boarders. *All options include 24/7 care. Options include:
At PUPS, we believe the best training choice is training the owner to train their dog by having the owner work the dog under trainer’s direction. We realize, however, that sometimes there is a need for in-board training to “jump start” the training process or to trouble shoot an issue for a dog already in training with their owner. Sometimes it’s necessary to Jump Start the training with Board and Train to get the dog under some control due to the dog’s size and strength, before the owner takes the leash and begins the training process. Examples of situations that would benefit with jump start, in-board training are; going on vacation and needing to board anyway, high energy dogs that are rambunctious and their owner just cannot get a handle on the dog to start the process. Even attempting to leash up the dog is an ordeal. The dog jumps and bites the owner while on leash. Pulling, launching and lunging on the leash impulsively to where the owner cannot hold the dog. Or so rambunctious in the home with children that it is physically dangerous for the kids. Or, for a dog already in training, sometimes the owner is struggling with a certain part of the training program and dropping the dog off either for a few days straight or dropping the dog during the day and picking the dog up in the evening allows the trainers to identify why the dog is struggling with that part of the training and then work the dog through it and ultimately have the owner do it with the dog, therefore, avoiding frustration with both dog and owner. The ultimate goal, however, is always for the owner and dog to work together.
